This was our 13th cruise on our 5th different cruise line (Carnival, Royal, NCL and Holland America). We had a good experience with Celebrity to Bermuda and liked the southern itinerary of this cruise, especially visiting two new ports (Bonaire and Columbia).
We flew in from Canada the day before and stayed at the Rodeway Inn which is a great stop before or after a cruise. It’s close to the airport and they have an airport shuttle and a cruise port shuttle.
Embarkation – I found the embarkation quite slow. We’ve never stood in line that long (maybe 40 min) but once we got our cards we were on the ship.
